Great White at La Jolla - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Jimmyz123 · 10-17-2013, 07:13 AM

Trust me, there are plenty of them out there. We have a perfect feeding ground for them. I recommend watching Shark week when it's out, I learned a lot of really cool things about Great Whites. I don't recommend leaving bleeding fish hanging over your kayak but I say live without fear.

More worried about the ones I DON'T see

Anyone ever use, or even carry a bang stick.

Sure wish one would kill a few seals right in front of the seal lady and her crusty minions.

You use a bang stick on a great white and get caught, guess what is going to happen to YOU!

I'm not sure but I saw posts on BWE that said a guy brought his bang stick to the game warden and they told him it was legal. Had to be a minimum length and you could not bring back what you shoot. Other than that. Legal. Maybe it changed I don't know.

great for seals. read up on the regs. you can stone those suckers if they try to attack your fish or get on the yak. "protecting life and property"

Not sure I believe that one. But I do know for a fact you can shoot seals with a paintball gun. Even in the face! I saw construction workers in SD bay last weekend doing drive-bys on 100 seals with a fully auto paint gun. Maybe we should all mount paint guns on turrets for our kayaks?

Pepper spray would work too. I wonder if someone makes pepper spray paint balls?

Or load your Glock up with rubber bullets, that would be easier than a paintball gun

That's what I'm talking about.

That video was taken by a buddy, Charlie S.

Whites are always out there, one of the reasons I bought a skiff

How quickly we forget when we jump on our yack and push out into the big blue, that we are entering the food chain.

yep, cruised by one just as long as the X factor one day. was cool till it went too deep to see.

there's a few up at San O too. the resident, Sparky, is seen quite frequently along with a few others.

one evening out at LJ i was cruising from trap to trap and 2 seals went airborn about 60 yards in front of me, took off in different directions then another hit the surface about 30 yards away and took off in a panic. didn't see any shark but i bet something scared the shit out of them.
